Fabric volume

Post by infernau »

the pattern instructions online give an approximation of 10M of fabric for the robe (both sides, 20m total), can anyone who's made a guard costume that is 6'+ tall attest to this, seems like a lot of fabric and I'm sure the robe ends up being really heavy.

I've made the lining part and yes , based on the pandora pattern for people over 1.75cm and a 59-60" wide fabric you'll need 10 yards, if you have 54" you'll need 12. Do you measurements before you buy, dye lots may bary and you want the same color in one purchase for all panels.
